Trump administration ends temporary protected status for Yemeni nationals

The Trump administration has ended temporary protected status (TPS) for Yemeni nationals in the US, according to Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem. The decision affects over 1,380 Yemenis who were granted deportation relief and work permits as part of the program. TPS provides relief to people already in the US due to extraordinary events in their home countries, such as natural disasters or armed conflict. The administration determined that Yemen no longer meets the law's requirements for TPS designation. This decision is the latest move by the Trump administration targeting immigrants. The status was set to expire on March 3, but its termination will now take effect immediately.
